The Transfer Tavern

Liverpool & Arsenal on RED ALERT as La Liga star becomes available?

The Daily Star are a rather popular publication here in the Football Transfer Tavern today.

They have a fair bot of gossip about both Liverpool and Arsenal who are keen on Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen.

The highly-rated young goalkeeper only moved to the Camp Nou in the summer but has struggled to make his way into Luis Enrique’s starting line-up.

Chilean international Claudo Bravo is currently the preferred number one between the sticks with ter Stegen only receiving game time in cup competitions.

After expressing his frustration at the club and his lack of opportunities, it seems that a loan deal could be arranged for the German international, enabling him some regular playing time in the second half of the season.

Now, it has been reported that both Arsene Wenger and Brendan Rodgers are keen on landing the former Borussia Monchengladbach man.

We think that Rodgers could well be rather keen on ter Stegen especially given Simon Mingolet is not someone who has really inspired much confidence of late.

Liverpool fans. Could this be the answer in the second half of the season given how little trust Rodgers has in Mingolet? Let us know your thoughts below.
